van der Gouw wasn't that bad.

Oh...sorry. I forgot all the important saves he made while Schmeichel was injured. Post editted. Thanks for pointing it out

Because it was a big shoes to fill in.. to replace big peter.

Being goalkeeper for United is a very hard job. The amount of pressure it has.. is unbearable!

Well, with Van der Sar (which SAF wanted after Peter left but couldn't), at least Man Utd is in safe hands now

yeah perfect replacement after the big Dane... what we need is Consistency....

One of the best saves ever!!!

Indeed it is a great save. Big shoes for England to fill (I know it's Arsenal playing but heck...).

Who can do better than he does?

iker casillas

10 sweet minutes for fellow Liverpool fans
Btw, Carragher is a closet keeper... you can see him giving instructions to dudek!

p.s. No wonder our keepers are good at saving penalties - All thanks to Carra!!!

time to scout for a replacement, it will be just nice by the time his contract runs out

yeay..
great rogerio ceni..

how abt Rashid Hassan?

Growing up watching ManUtd winning almost everything, I'm pretty convinced that the Big Dane is the main man. I like the way he controlled his defense. One single mistake and you'd have to prepare hearing him shouting at you. A commanding goalkeeper is always a plus for any team. Also his one-on-ones were superb. He'd do the cobra-style and that'd scare the sh8t out of the striker.

The diminutive and certainly colourful, Jorge Campos!

I would vote for Sergio Goycochea based on his performances in Italia 90 for Argentina. Not as the best in the world etc, but i think he deserves praise for his feat in that WC. He was oustanding in all those penalty saves that took Argentina to the finals. He almost saved that eventual-winning-penalty as well....got his fingertips to it.....

I'm a fan of his as well. No one had heard of him before the 1990 World Cup. First choice keeper Neri Pumpido got injured on their opening game against Cameroon when they were shocked 1-0 and Goycochea made a number of top class saves to put them in the finals against Germany, winning 2 penalty shootouts along the way. Germany won 1-0 in the final via a penalty that was scored by Andreas Brehmen but Goycochea was a whisker away from saving it. He is truly the first keeper I know that deserves the title, "penalty king", if there ever was one. Sadly I could never track his progress after the tournament as he continued to ply his trade in South America and he disappeared into obscurity.

Sergio Goycochea has my vote too. He nearly won World Cup for Argentina 1990. That tournamant Maradona was playing badly.

me used to play as a gk during school days....
watched ol' skool videos of lev yashin, gordon banks' famous save, peter shilton flying acts, ray clemence's 1 on 1 superiority, martin brunno of france, the flying jean marie pfaff of belgium, harald schumacher and some south american's ol' skool gk.
ol' skool south americans' gk tend to be more acrobatic and adventerous in their approach, while their european counterparts are more orthodox and direct. but the trend seems to be changing now.
a tournament or a season wonder gk definitely can't be the best. but their saves will be remembered!
so...
damn ol' skool best gk goes to lev yashin
ol' skool best gk goes to err.... tie between peter shilton, dino zoff, harald schumacher and jean marie pfaff
of the current active gk, casillas and buffon definitely on the class of their own.
van de sar seems to be doing well with mu too.
